You might be an Episcopalian if,
1. you find yourself saying, "Oh, but we've never done it that way before.
2. you can pronounce "innumerable benefits procured for us by the same."
3. your covered dish for the potluck dinner is escargot in puff shells.
4. you know that Agnus Dei is not a woman.
5. when your friend says, "I am truly sorry," you respond, "and you humbly repent?"
6. after choir rehearsal the Music Director suggests discussing something over a beer.
7. you know that sursum corda is not a surgical procedure.
8. you know that the Senior Warden and the Junior Warden are not positions in the local prison.
9. words like "vouchsafe," "oblation," "supplications," "succor," "bewail," "wherefore," "dost," and "very" (in its archaic sense) are familiar to you even if you have no clue what they mean.
10. when you watch Star Wars and they say, "May the Force be with you," you automatically reply, "And also with you."

In my case it was when I was 12, Mom, Dad and the 6 kids left our small town in Virginia ... and the church had to close.
There just aren't that many Episcopalians.
This time around, 5, 6, and 9 were my favs. Nine got a good laugh from me.
